Here's the relevant snippet of HTML in the template:
<form action="/submit_text/" method="post">
{% csrf_token %}
{% include "backbone/form_errors.html" %}
{{form.as_p}}
<input type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
Here is my settings.py
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES
declaration:
MIDDLEWARE_CLASSES = (
'django.middleware.common.CommonMiddleware',
'django.contrib.sessions.middleware.SessionMiddleware',
'django.middleware.csrf.CsrfViewMiddleware',
'django.contrib.auth.middleware.AuthenticationMiddleware',
'django.contrib.messages.middleware.MessageMiddleware',
)
The CSRF token simply doesn't show, causing a
Forbidden (403) CSRF verification failed. Request aborted.
You need to pass the RequestContext
in your render_to_response
for the context processors to actually be run.
from django.template import RequestContext
context = {}
return render_to_response('my_template.html',
context,
context_instance=RequestContext(request))
the new render
shortcut (django 1.3+) will do it for you:
from django.shortcuts import render
context = {}
return render(request, 'my_template.html', context)
